Tour of England

LongHouse Reserve has announced its first study tour, to London and gardens in Sussex, Kent, the Cotswalds, and the capital. The tour will take place June 5 through June 12 and will focus on gardens at the height of the season.

Sophieke Piebenga, an experienced tour leader based in the Cotswalds, will conduct visits to private gardens and estates with the head gardeners. A highlight of the tour will be a meeting with Fergus Garrett, LongHouse Landscape Award recipient, and dining with him at Great Dixter, a 500-year-old house with famous gardens.

Because space is limited, LongHouse has suggested reserving a place as soon as possible, through events@longhouse.org.
